G.K. for the day !

The famous Hawaiian Islands were formed from the lava of the world's most active and lava producing under sea volcano kilauea... It is inside the sea bed of the Pacific Ocean and produces everyday so much lava that a 32 km long double lane highway can be constructed. The montains made out of the lava used to increase in height due to the volcanic eruptions and after many years the mountains grew so tall that they started emerging out of the sea and started forming the hawaiian islands. Slowly trees and plants started growing on the black lava mountains and now it is one of the world's greenest places..
This is how world's most active volcano gave birth to one of the world's greenest islands and unique flora and fauna. Today also these islands are increasing in size due to volcanic eruptions beneath the sea.
